6 Best Gutter Companies in Minnetonka, MN (2026 Guide)
9min Read
Posted 2.27.2026
Minnetonka’s gutter problem layers two distinct vintages. The 1960s and 1970s ramblers and split-levels that fill the 55305, 55343, and 55345 ZIPs went up with sectional aluminum gutters that are now sagging, leaking at the seams, and pulling away from the fascia in entire neighborhoods. The 2000s+ luxury rebuilds clustered around Lake Minnetonka are mostly on original seamless gutters that are starting to hit their 20-year mark. Add Minnetonka’s mature tree canopy near the lake, and gutters become one of the most-replaced exterior components in the city right now. The good news: modern seamless aluminum or steel gutters with the right cover system, sized correctly to the roof, last 20+ years and protect everything below them — fascia, soffit, siding, and (most expensive of all) the foundation.
This guide is written by the Owl Roofing team — a Shoreview-based, family-owned home exterior contractor serving Minnetonka from 30 minutes east. Gutters are a newer service line for us, and we tell you exactly when to choose a hometown specialist instead. We’re listed in our honest ranking position below — toward the bottom, not the top.

1. ABC Seamless of the Twin Cities
Best for: Minnetonka lake-area homes that need gutters tough enough to handle ice dams.
ABC Seamless is the longest-running seamless-gutter brand in the country, and the Twin Cities dealer serves Minnetonka as core territory. Where almost everyone else installs aluminum, ABC’s signature product is heavy-gauge seamless steel — fabricated on a truck-mounted machine right at your house in one continuous run. Steel handles ladder dings, ice loads, and falling branches in ways aluminum can’t. Minnetonka’s 3,000+ sq ft lake homes especially benefit from 6-inch steel that won’t bend under heavy spring snowmelt loads.
Watch for: Steel gutters cost roughly 30–50% more than aluminum upfront. The math typically pays back in life span (40+ years vs. 20–25 for aluminum), but if you plan to sell within 5–7 years, aluminum may be the better economic call.
2. Minnesota Leafless Gutters
Best for: Tree-shaded Minnetonka lots near Lake Minnetonka or Bren Road.
Minnesota Leafless Gutters specializes in seamless aluminum gutters paired with their proprietary “leafless” cover system. They serve Minnetonka and the broader Twin Cities and have built their reputation on the cover detail — the place where most gutter systems fail in heavily wooded yards. Minnetonka’s mature canopy near the lake areas makes the cover system matter more than the gutter itself.
Watch for: Proprietary cover systems mean replacement parts come from one supplier. Confirm warranty terms in writing.
3. Lindus Construction
Best for: Minnetonka homeowners running gutters alongside siding, roofing, or windows.
Lindus has been operating in the Twin Cities since the late 1970s and is BBB Accredited with an A+ rating. They install seamless aluminum gutters, K-style and half-round profiles, and pair gutter installations with their roofing, siding, and insulation work.
Watch for: Multi-service operators sometimes have less daily volume in any one trade than a focused gutter specialist. If your project is gutter-only, ask how many seamless installs they completed last year.
4. LeafFilter
Best for: Pure gutter-guard installs over existing gutters that are still structurally sound.
LeafFilter is a national company with a heavy Twin Cities presence. Their stainless steel micro-mesh sits on top of existing gutters and prevents debris from getting in. If your current gutters are intact and you want guards installed without replacing the whole system, LeafFilter is purpose-built for that job. They run a transferable lifetime warranty, which can be a meaningful resale-value note.
Watch for: National operators rely on regional sales teams. Pricing is sometimes negotiable when you compare against a second quote — always get one.
5. Gutter Helmet of Minnesota
Best for: Homeowners who specifically want the reverse-curve cover system.
Gutter Helmet’s reverse-curve design has been on the market for decades and is one of the most recognizable gutter cover systems in the country. The Minnesota franchisee installs Gutter Helmet on existing or new gutters across the Twin Cities, including Minnetonka.
Watch for: Reverse-curve covers can struggle with sustained heavy rain runoff during severe storms. Sizing matters — make sure the installer specs the right downspout capacity.
6. Owl Roofing — Now Offering Gutter Installation in Minnetonka
Best for: Minnetonka homeowners replacing their roof and gutters as a single project.
Owl Roofing is based in Shoreview at 1000 County Road E West Ste 135 — a 30-minute drive east of Minnetonka. We’re family-owned, BBB Accredited, GAF Systems Plus Certified for roofing, Minnesota-licensed and insured, and active members of the local Chamber of Commerce. Our 5.0 Google rating across 30+ verified reviews comes from Shoreview, North Oaks, Roseville, and the surrounding suburbs we live in. We recently expanded into gutter installation as part of our broader exterior service.
We’ll be honest: we are newer to gutters than the five companies above, and we’re not based in Minnetonka. If your project is gutters-only, ABC Seamless or Minnesota Leafless will likely give you a sharper quote and more depth on cover-system tradeoffs. We earn our place on this list when your roof is being replaced and the gutters are coming off anyway — running them as one project means tighter coordination, one warranty contact, and one project manager rather than three. Every Owl install, including gutters, is backed by our Get it Right Guarantee — a 10-year workmanship warranty.
What Owl Roofing Customers Actually Say
Real, verified Google reviews from real customers. Owl Roofing maintains a 5.0 Google rating with 30+ five-star reviews.
We used Owl Roofing for a repair on our roof in Brooklyn Park, and I was blown away by how good they were. Every member of the team communicated well about the process. Their price transparency was super helpful. They got the work done very fast for us.
— Matt Brown, Brooklyn Park (verified Google review)
Noah is the real deal. After our insurance denied our roof claim and the first roofer walked away, Noah showed up the next day and said he thought he could get us a new roof. He delivered. We came up with a nickname for him: “The Roof Whisperer.”
— Tyler Moberg, verified Google review
I am an Independent Insurance Agency owner and have worked with Noah on several roof projects. The homeowners have been extremely satisfied with the quality of the work and craftsmanship Noah and his crews have provided.
— Fred Zappa, Independent Insurance Agency Owner
It didn’t feel like dealing with a big company — it felt like working with people who actually care about the homes and community in the North Oaks and Shoreview area.
— Cody Warren, verified Google review
Noah and his team are outstanding! His clear communication, professionalism, and workmanship are top-notch. I recommend Owl Roofing to all my clients, friends, and family.

How to Choose a Gutter Company in Minnetonka
Insist on seamless aluminum or steel — not sectional. Sectional gutter kits sold at big-box stores have a seam every 10 feet, and every seam is a future leak. Seamless gutters are fabricated on-site in continuous runs from a single coil and only seam at corners and downspouts.
Size the gutters to the roof, not the bid. Standard 5-inch K-style is fine for many ramblers. For Minnetonka’s two-story split-levels and lake-area homes with steep pitches, 6-inch is often the right call — it carries roughly 40% more water. A contractor who quotes 5-inch on a steep two-story without asking is cutting corners.
Get the workmanship warranty in writing. Manufacturer warranties cover the gutter material. Workmanship warranties cover the install — including hanger spacing, pitch, and downspout placement. Owl Roofing’s Get it Right Guarantee is 10 years.
Verify the Minnesota license. Confirm via the Minnesota Department of Labor & Industry license lookup before signing. Owl Roofing’s MN license is BC809662.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do gutters cost in Minnetonka, MN?
For a typical Minnetonka home, full gutter replacement runs $2,000–$5,200 depending on linear footage, gutter material, and downspout count. Minnetonka’s larger lake-area homes typically run higher than other suburbs. Seamless aluminum runs $7–$13 per linear foot installed; seamless steel from ABC Seamless runs $12–$20.
Are gutter guards worth it on Minnetonka homes near the lake?
For tree-canopy-heavy lots near Lake Minnetonka and other wooded areas, almost always yes. The math works out within 4–6 years versus the cost of professional cleaning twice annually.
Should I replace my gutters when I replace my roof?
Usually yes. Gutters and downspouts are typically removed during roof replacement anyway, and reinstalling 25-year-old gutters with new ice-and-water shield underneath is rarely the right call. Bundling the two saves on tear-off labor and ensures the drip edge and gutter pitch line up cleanly.
Can I bundle gutters with siding, roofing, or windows in Minnetonka?
Yes — bundling typically saves on flashing transitions, fascia repair, and trim coordination. See our Best Window Installers in Minnetonka and Best Siding Contractors in Minnetonka guides for the rest of the picture.
